With Pydio you can schedule tasks and gain a lot of time instead of running every task indivudaly you can run them all at a chosen time such as maintenance tasks.
First make sure you have the Tasks Scheduler Plugin Enabled go to Available Plugins > Actions Plugins.
Now lets see how you can program & run a task i will give you an example but you can apply the logic for other tasks.
Go to Menu > Scheduler and click on create a new task.

SCHEDULE TAB
- Schedule : you need to use a cron expression, to set the time for when the tasks are going to be executed.
for example : 0 0 0/1 1/1 * ? * ( i want to send mails every HOUR )
Here's a Cron Expressions Generator theres plenty on the internet
ACTION TAB

- Action : Choose the action that you want to perform.
for example : consume_mail_queue ( it will send all the mails that i queued in one batch )
- Action Parameters : Your action parameters, specify what you exactly need from the chosen action.
- Label : Name your Task, I advise you to always give it a clear name.
for example : i'm creating a task that will send a notification mail lets name it should be [NOTIF]mail, it will make it easier to find when i want to change something.
Its just an example feel free to name it as you want.
